Definitions

• the invention relates to a flake reducing temperature of waste heat, and more particularly, to a flake used to reduce temperature of a condenser coil in an air conditioner for the sake of reducing temperature of waste heat.
• the invention provides a method for reducing waste heat using water produced when an air conditioner operates and thereby heat exchange efficiency can increase. Accordingly, an energy-saving effect can be achieved.
• the present invention proposes a flake for reducing temperature of waste heat discharged from an air
• the flake is placed at an inner bottom side of the air conditioner and between a condenser fan and a condenser coil.
• wind power created by the condenser fan has a portion blowing toward the flake, and then blowing toward underlying water, produced when the air conditioner operates, along the flake such that the water can be raised and then move to the condenser coil so as to cool the condenser coil.
• the invention provides the flake that can be placed on any type of air conditioner, suitable for each air conditioner having different specifications on market.
• the flake has high compatibility and can be launched soon into the market. Further, the water and dust at the bottom can be discharged with wind.
• the flake inclines to the condenser fan such that air pressure, when the wind passes over a surface of the water, can increase and thus dust can be raised.
• the flake has a top at a level lower than an axis of the condenser fan.
• the present invention further proposes a method for reducing temperature of waste heat discharged from an air conditioner.
• the method includes placing a flake at an inner bottom side of the air conditioner and between a condenser fan and a condenser coil.
• wind created by the condenser fan has a portion moving along the flake and driving water on an inner bottom surface of the air conditioner to move to the condenser coil.

• the condenser coil 30 can be further cooled and thus discharged air is not so hot.
• the flake 2 is not affected by a size of the condenser fan 20.
• Water and dust at the bottom of the housing 10 can be raised by wind power created by the condenser fan 20. Thereby, water can be efficiently used for cooling and dust expelling. It is convenient for a cleaning process in the future.
• multiple holes 21 are provided in the flake 2 and lead air to flow relatively smoothly.
• the flake 2 inclines to the condenser fan 20 such that wind power can be guided to press a surface of the water and thus the water can splash with the wind.
• the flake 2 has a top at a level lower than an axis of the condenser fan 20.
• the flake 2 can connect with two sides of the housing 10 and can be close to a bottom of the housing 10, which is in the scope of "at an inner bottom side of the air conditioner” as claimed in claims.
• a longitudinal hole 22 can be provided at a bottom of the flake 2 and leads air to flow therethrough. Thereby, increased water can be raised with the air flowing and the condenser coil 30 can further cool.
